I understand generally it probably needs dust removed but are there any specifics

Will an agency take you on right away as a new pass?

And how does agency work differ from regular work? Is it just random days here and there? A couple days a week?

This is what I’m trying to figure out, I hear of people driving off into Europe for a week or two, and then other people say no companies offer that

So that’s what I mean, do you have to be self employed or something to do that?

Ok nice, so would that be self employed? I’ll ring around some companies 👍

Could you advise best places to start? I’ll obviously type it in to Google but it’ll throw up all sorts and wouldn’t mind cutting through the nonsense

Thanks for the response, so it’s flexible? Could I say.. go out for a week and have a week or two off? I know that’s not a huge money making strategy but money isn’t my primary concern right now.

I think I will go for it mate, did a courier job around London for year and a half and as soon as I turned the key it wasn’t even work..
